+### Fingerprints
+
+This is how you calculate the SHA-1 fingerprint of a certificate:
+
+```js
+const crypto = require('crypto');
+const { Certificate } = require('@fidm/x509')
+
+const ed25519Cert = Certificate.fromPEM(fs.readFileSync('./test/cert/ed25519-server-cert.pem'))
+
+const shasum = crypto.createHash('sha1');
+shasum.update(parsed.raw);
+console.log(shasum.digest('hex')); // bd667307af5a0f203e37635ff8d29d96f2f3ad7c
+```
+
+Yields the same results as:
+
+```shell
+$ openssl x509 -noout -fingerprint -sha1 -inform pem -in ./test/cert/ed25519-server-cert.pem
+SHA1 Fingerprint=BD:66:73:07:AF:5A:0F:20:3E:37:63:5F:F8:D2:9D:96:F2:F3:AD:7C
